[TR] Starting car after storage

[Adrian Jones]

Hi Folks,

 

Well, I took everyone's good advice and it started up, no problem.

 

So naturally I decided to go for a test drive - the tow truck has just
dropped the car off.

 

After about a mile of driving, it felt a bit sluggish so I pulled into a
Garden Center and tried to turn around.  It stalled and it decided it didn't
want to go any further.  That's when I called Hagerty for the tow truck.

 

I have a feeling the brakes have rusted up and seized.  I have to jack up
the car and see which ones - front or back.  Which are more likely to seize?
Probably the back drums, right? Funny thing though - before I started
walking back home, I felt each wheel for heat - nothing.

 

Cheers
